Sony?s shares have increased to hit a record high, as reported by Bloomberg. It?s all thanks to increased interest in gaming and the incredibly popular PlayStation 5 console that had a record launch.
The launch of the PS5 coincided with a rise in coronavirus cases in many countries. Since coronavirus has seen many people stay at home for increasingly long periods, many have turned to gaming as a boredom buster in 2020. In Japan alone, hardware and software sales are up 5.5% compared to November 2019. The PS5 sold 118,000 units in the country in just the first four days of release.
